Nice. Hope for original stock, my 1954 HRA is a gorgeous rifle but came with a CMP stock."Better to remain silent, and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt." -- Mark TwainComment

I will share photos as soon as possible. I'm excited its a WW2 rifle. I hear one doesn't stop with just one Garand. This could get expensive!Comment

How do you go about getting one of these from CMP?IF YOU BUY ANY BULK AMMO FROM LAX AMMO, YOU BETTER COUNT THE ROUNDS. I WAS SHORTED BY THEM.

BTW, after hearing the stories of long waits from CMP, I'm very happy with the turnaround time. Mailed my complete package on 01/20/2015 via regular mail and the rifle shipped today. I was prepared to wait the 3-6 months waiting time quoted on CMP's website. Guess I got lucky.Comment

You will love shooting your Garand. In case you haven't read through the disassembly instructions for cleaning and inspection, here they are http://www.garandgear.com/m1-garand-strip.
You should also order a op rod spring from Garand Gear. It's quite possible the one that will ship with your rifle has seen better days, so it's best to replace it. Even if your op rod spring looks good, the spring is inexpensive and worthwhile to have on hand in case you need it. You should also pick up a gas cylinder wrench so you don't bend the gas cylinder when removing the plug.Last edited by Enfield47; 02-11-2015, 9:36 PM.Comment
